MEDIUMS: Acrylic SPECIALTY: ✔ Generalist
After taking hundreds of nature hikes at dawn in England’s New Forest, I have an enduring fondness of soft light, flowers, and paths.
As an artist, I want to bring my viewers to a place of peace.
I see paintings as still-points, reminders to slow down and enjoy the moments.

It really is a game changer! I absolutely love everything about Mastrius.
I thought about getting a mentor for about a year and a half before actually going through with it, and I’m so happy I joined.
Debbie Halliday, Emerging Artist
“Mastrius has done wonders for my confidence. I have managed to step way outside of my comfort zone which has in turn given rise to so many more opportunities to further my art career.”
Deb Nicolaisen, Emerging Artist
I have greatly appreciated Sue Riger’s enthusiasm and positivity. She is fearless in trying new methods and generously shares her process and how she deliberates over her work. Her approach has helped me be more courageous in my work by making space for exploration and discovery. She has helped me both with technical aspects and my mindset in how I approach my work. Sue accommodates varies styles and offers tailor made advice for group members. She is generous in what she shares and works diligently to support the learning trajectory of each group member. She actively listens and responds to the needs of our group. Sue is a positive, genuine and upbeat artist, and is a pure joy to have as a mentor!

MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST
What Collectors are Saying:
"Sue! I can’t sing your praises enough! Not only are you an extremely talented artist, your kindness just shows in everything you do."
"Just a quick note to let you know I received the beautiful masterpiece. Thanks so much! The colors are exquisite and really brighten my day. I'm enjoying building this collection."
"You are my favorite painter. Almost every day I say, 'I wish I could paint like that!'"
"Dear Sue, I was completely taken back by the quality of the three hydrangeas prints you sent. The vibrancy of the color and the ability to see the brush strokes honestly took my breath away. I am beyond thrilled that I asked for 3 to share the art with my sisters on their birthdays this spring. You know I'm a fan. This is the best way to have and also share one of my FAVORITE paintings of yours! WOW. Thank you so much!"
"I received “Joy Soaked” yesterday and I can honestly say I was Joy Soaked! So beautiful, even more so in person. It makes me happy every time I look at it! Thank you!"
"Hi Sue! I just got my paintings! They are more beautiful than your pictures! Wow! May your kindness and generosity be rewarded many times over, friend."
